I’m just biased towards these. I need to try them side by side to see which number I like best.

Been counting down the days till I can have me some Sugarfish. I know it’s a hit/miss with some sushi folk, but I love it anyway.

This sake is sort of the mainstay quality guy, old reliable. A pillowy mouthfeel of snowfall laden with an undercurrent frosty umami note. Toasted pumpkin seeds give it that slight nutty note and of course a creamy, sweet almost like pumpkin purée sweetness. Interesting, complex, and drinkable.

Compared three different seimaibuai - 50%, 39% and 23%. Differences are subtle but the 23 is certainly the most delicate
